Neal Schon's Ex-Wife & Kids Are On Food Stamps

While Journey continues to rake in millions of dollars each year and Neal Schon spends millions on new wife Michaele Salahi, he has left his two youngest kids, aged 8 and 10 and their mom so bad off that they are living on food stamps and the mom is selling the family home and planning on moving into an apartment. The Daily Mail interviewed Amber Kozan's mom who said that Neal is an abusive drunk who is nothing more than a sperm donor with an inadequate monthly check. She also says that Michaele has been saying nasty things to Neal about his ex and his kids and that Neal sends nasty texts and e-mails to Amber and wants nothing to do with his kids. Neal left Amber for Michaele. What the story does not talk about or the reporter ask is what the child support payments are and how come Amber does not go back to court to get more. Hopefully the shame of having his kids on food stamps will cause Neal to fork over more money, but I doubt it. Michaele is probably telling him to let them eat cake.

Sure you can have court orders and everything but it is still amazingly easy for men to slip away from their obligations. Even guys like Neal. The ex-wife might be being a little cagey by letting this get in the news, but it might be the only tool she has to get him to do what it right. Seriously if they can prove she is applying for public aid, Neal isn't doing something right. I am side-eyeing Neal here.

Seems that there is potential wrong on both parts. She is in the process of selling a $500,000 house but that can take a while in this market. If that house was paid for in cash she could get easily get something smaller in cash. Don't know if she has a job. Agree, she should have one or looking for one if she doesn't.

Supposedly Neal sends checks but who knows how often they come or how much they are.

Still giving Neal the side-eye here. How hard would it be for him to help while she is trying to sell the house?

Interesting he was married to Amber for 7 years. So it wasn't some "hit and run" sort of thing, but in the celebrity world a respectable run for a marriage. Plus he would have had time to bond with his children in a marriage that long. So yes, a check mark in the douchebag box would be in order for Neal.

I am trying to remember, are Food Stamps a federal program or is it run by the states? If it is by the states, the requirements could vary from state to state. Still doesn't let Neal off the hook. He has all this money to blow on Michaele, yet he is perfectly willing to let the taxpayers have to feed his kids. Double checkmark in the douchebag box for him.

Neal Schon hasn't actually married Michaele Salahi yet, has he? I'm convinced that she's a sociopath. Good luck to him, if he does marry her. It will be like watching a fly trying to extricate itself from a sticky, sticky web.

I met Wife #2, Beth, after a concert on Journey's Raised on Radio tour and she was really sweet, but also really dumb. And years ago I sold some old Journey concert t-shirts on eBay to gal who called herself "Amber Schon." I thought she was some crazy fan who was pretending to be married to Neal, but it turned out she really was his wife! She said she wanted the shirts for her child (she only had one then). I remember I had to mail the shirts to her mom because Amber didn't want her real address to get out. But Amber was a real sweetie in her e-mails. I could never understand why Neal would divorce her.

My guess is ex wife was a gold digger. So she has no real job qualifications or talent other than gold digging.

when Neal splits she's left to support her kids on a budget that is probably great for an average person but miniscule to someone who's been hand fed gold for 7 years. Meaning she probably needs to learn to budget her money and probably learn a trade fast.

Wow, so much hate for single moms. Chances are that cheap ass 500k house has an enormous mortgage on it or she would have already re-financed to keep from selling. 500k houses are not luxurious mansions in most urban centres. More like a 'starter home'.

I don't get why she can't get a job? My mom was a single mom and I had friends with the same thing. They lived perfectly fine. She probably just wants to sit around bring a soccer mom. If she didn't get herself an education than that's her fault. She should've been smarter and not expect a man to take care of her forever.

You are SO right, Desiree.My ex husband made less money than I, because he wanted to go golfing instead of working a full time job. When we divorced (he has a Masters in Finance, but was working as a cook at a golf course, so at least he had free tee times, albeit no work in the winter months). I was to pay him child support. I flipped out and we agreed on 50/50 custody and no child support. So I'm not one of those women who ended up cashing in on the divorce. Uh, uh, no way. I was sole support. Now, I'm married and my husband works. Ahhhhh….it's nice, in a way!
